NgoziParticipantI don’t need to run away or withdraw from the group when our differences become apparent. We can connect despite our differences.

“There is no need to cancel the ego; we need only to correct or more accurately, change the way we use our desire to enjoy, moving from an egoistic approach to an altruistic one.”
Ego is our nature,

ArjunParticipantI’d like to think of ‘pluses and minuses’ as … The Color White is Most visible against a Black canvas. Contrast creates Clarity.
When un-preferred events occur, that feeling of Aversion towards that circumstance, is the space where I am able to Invite in the Creators Light. That gap, that distance between Desire (where I want to be) and the Current Reality (the unsavoury situation), is The Opportunity for Growth. It is the Ladder that supports my ascension up the 125 levels. - February 6, 2026 at 11:02 pm EST #480713

Chapter 2 – In The Beginning
P 41
“Rabbi Akiva said that the entire Torah is comprised of one law: ” “Love thy neighbor as thyself.”” Twenty-four thousand of his disciples, who were taught to follow that law, still developed unfounded hatred for one another. All except five died because of that corruption; the ones who survived were those who were not dragged into hatred.”5 in 24,000! That is only 0.020833%, no even 1% of Akiva’s diciples!
This clearly shows that even the most advanced disciples of the Wisdom of Kabbalah are victims of falling into the lowest ego.
And I wonder how it is nowadays, in our current time? Maybe there are no kabbalists that develop that egoistic characteristic like unfounded hatred but I can tell that there are some who have developed spiritual arrogance and indifference.
So I, we need to be extremely vigilant to not fall into that trap of the ego or to develop other egoistic traits that will end up hurting our spiritual advancement and hurting others or demotivate/discourage spiritual seekers of the Creator.
